I can’t resist reading Bellamy Hunt’s In Your Bag series on his popular site, Japan Camera Hunter. It’s a bit like sneeky-peeping other people’s iPhone home screens: All the usual ingredients but mixed up in a different way. However, when In Your Bag teams up with Kai Man Wong, DigitalRev’s irrepressible presenter—the Jeremy Clarkson of the Orient―the excitement is palpable. There’s more to Kai than meets the eye.
Kai Wong definitely has the most interesting bag I’ve seen so far this year. In episode 888 (he must have bribed Bellamy to get such a lucky number) you find Kai’s daily life laid out for all to see, from film to fantasy. There’s even an Earl Grey teabag which, apparently, is for munching as well as brewing. Somehow, I thought Kai was more a PG Tips kind of guy.
Kai is fast becoming a legend. I don’t care what he’s reviewing – I just enjoy viewing the ridiculousness. Bokeh 😉
I agreeo. His irreverence is wonderful, and that’s why I liken him to J.Clarkson. As you say, it doesn’t matter what he is reviewing, it is the way he does it that makes the difference. Pure entertainment. And Lok is the perfect foil, the Laurel to Kai’s Hardy, who plays a bit dumb but I suspect is the brains behind the outfit.
